The problem is that pretty much everybody here knows more about the real world that John Larkin, so his ideas about how the real world might change - an incipient ice age or the like - get treated with the contempt they deserve.

Fred Bloggs - for instance - is quite insistent that the world is going to change, but his idea conflict with those of Anthony Watts, and John Larkin chooses to believe what Anthony Watts tells him (which is to say what the Koch brothers pay Anthony Watts to tell to the gullible).

That does seem to be the mindset that confuses socialism with communism, and fails to notice that the problem with communism was that it wasn't democratic.

Joseph McCarthy concocted a narrative in 1950, and some people still take it seriously.
